| [slm] Smile… hehe… Cute I use the expression "that’s ironic” quite often … smile… now I understand why: 7. My mother taught me IRONY. "Keep crying & I'll give you something to cry about." :-[ might be why I haven’t had a good cry in years either… (just kidding). Was always so happy she loved my father dearly ;D : 22. My mother taught me GENETICS. "You're just like your father." (something tells me that was not her point… smile) & never quite caught up with the wisdom factor ;) maybe some day: 24. My mother taught me WISDOM. "When you get to be my age, you’ll understand." (few more years here to go) Ahh… I Love My Mother Dearly … Alhamdu lillah Nice Smile Sister… Jazak Allahu Khairan [wlm] |
